HHHHHHHHHHHHappy

Well we have a new Car. While we were looking Nikki printed out a bunch of ads off KSL.com and so we had like 15 to look at. We test drove a few but they were all kinda crappy. Then there was this one that i am pretty sure she printed off to be mean and cruel in a "look what you can't have" kinda way. Anyway, it was a Black '94 Pontiac Trans Am with a Corvette 350 LT1 and a Manual 6 speed. It also had Racing alloys, K&N Cold Air Intake, Edelbrock Lower controll arms, a Strut tower brace, T-Tops, Leather interior, a Hurst Short Throw Shifter, and only 67000 miles. Asking Price $6000, which is half of what the car was worth but still more than we had to pay. So we joked about taking it for a test drive and ended up actually doing it. Well go figure i love the car and coime to find out he has dropped the price to $5500 because he REALLY needs to sell the car having just gotten married. So we meet up again and take it up to Bountiful where Nikki's Brother has a Shop and look over the entire car Top to Bottom, Left to Right. Despite a few minor things here and there the car is actually in very good condition. So we go back and tell him what we found and offer him $5000 cash and he actually accepted. So i have been a very happy person for the last few days. My parents are taking bets on how long it will take for me to get my first speeding ticket being that it gets to 100mph in about 6.5 seconds. Hopefully i will have a chance to show you all and gloat in my good deal finding. Toodles

Irony At it's best.......no really

Ok. So we sell the Dodge right. It sucked but it got like 30MPG. And we now have the "SOOB", which gets like 35MPG, and then there is My truck. While cool and powerful devours fuel at about 18MPG. SO what happens to Fuel prices the WEEK i start driving it? A 50 cent per gallon jump. fortunatly for us here in utah that has only manifested as a 25 cent jump, but i am sure mope is on the way.

I had my first Randauser contact me today about my blog. It was some girl who was bored and apparently researched the word "Ladedoodeda" from one of my very first posts about my computer. Surprise i was the only one who actually used that word EVER. Anyway what did everyone think of my bad idea to allow ya'll use this blogg as more of a group thing instead of concentrating on my boring personal life? I haven't recieved any feedback yet so i assume no body liked the idea. Also i am trying to find how, in my very limited blogging time, to post pictured and stuff of the like. My mom has this cool digital camera and all i need to do is figure out how.

So anyway the Archery hunt is going well. I went out twice this week in the morning and have thus far passed up 7 small Bucks, mostly based on the thought that i have a 3 day weekend coming up and i plan on going after them pretty heavy in hopes of skewering a big one. Besides i know that if i don't get one this weekend i will be able to go find any of those same ones from earlier this week and take which ever one i like best.

Having no Internet at home, no cable or satelite tv at home, no home phone, and now working a schedule that shatters the weekly event that kept me somewhat informed, i have absolutly no idea what is going on. I didn't even knoe there was a hurricane headed for the Gulf until Yesterday when people were talking about all the damage and looting and crap. I feel so........Hermitified. Anyway kids, gotta go to work.
